Subject: Cyclopedia (Chambers) - Volume 1

Magic Lanterns and Camera Obscuras seem to pop up everywhere in history. The frontispiece of this 1728 Chambers' edition of their ‘Cyclopædia’ has at the bottom L of the engraving, a ‘Magic Lantern’ alongside all the other tools of science.

See the magic lantern in the bottom left quadrant here https://archive.org/details/Cyclopediachambers-Volume1/page/n7/mode/2up
